2.5.2  Dentists/Practices

With 3.88 dental graduates per 100,000 inhabitants, Spain has one of the highest rates of young dentists in Europe. As dentists are allowed to practice independently straight after their license to practice without a residency period, competition is increasing rapidly.84 As of 2021, 23,559 dental practices were registered across Spain.85

In Spain, general practitioners are usually responsible for providing primary dental care to the adult population. In some urban health centers, dentists are also involved in primary care. The package of services included in basic insurance covers tooth extractions, the treatment of infections or inflammations, preventive measures for pregnant women and caries prevention for children. However, most dental treatments are carried out in private practices, where patients are required to pay for services directly. The majority of dentists work as private dentists. There is no regulated dental specialist training in Spain, but dentists in private practice are increasingly specializing in areas such as orthodontics or oral surgery. There is no formal training for non-dental practice staff in Spain. However, dental hygienists must undergo two years of training and education in private or public schools. Dental hygienists are allowed to carry out prophylaxis and oral health education, but only if a dentist is present in the practice.86
